Sal's Masonry gets hired for the stonework out front — patios, walkways, entry stairs, a pad for a shed. It is owner-operated by Sal, a third-generation mason who says he has more than 20 years in the trade, following his father and grandfather. The company works out of North Andover and Andover, and names Dracut, Methuen, Boxford, Tewksbury and North Reading among the towns it serves, plus Windham, Salem and Atkinson across the New Hampshire line. Google shows 5.0 across 34 ratings. In an April 2026 review, a homeowner who had a deteriorating 30-year-old walkway replaced described Sal as responsive from first contact to completion, with communication that was clear and thorough. A 2023 customer said he explained paver types and designs before installing a 12-by-14 patio, and a 2022 couple credited Sal and Ken with a new walkway and entry stairs at a price they called very reasonable. Another 2022 customer had him build a pad for a shed on what they called a difficult property to navigate, then changed the job halfway through — not a problem at all, they wrote. The company's site reaches past the small jobs too: walls, driveways, pool decks, outdoor kitchens and landscape installs across Massachusetts and southern New Hampshire. For a paver patio or a front walkway in the Merrimack Valley, Sal's is a natural call — ask to see recent work like yours, and settle the scope, the materials and the insurance in writing before work starts.
We hired Sal to repair the 30yr old deteriorating walkway to our house. From first contact to completion of the job, Sal was extremely responsive and his communication was clear, efficient, yet thorough. Sal is a hard-working, thoughtful, meticulous, and passionate mason tradesman. His attention to detail and consummate professionalism shows in the quality of his work. His proposal identified specific areas of the walkway that needed attention but the scope of the repairs he made exceeded the work described in his proposal, as he was driven to "do it right", yet the quoted price remained the same. The end result far exceeded our expectations. We ended up with a practically brand new walkway. Sal was very conscientious, and left the surroundings of the work area clean and in better shape than before the start of the work. We could not be happier with Sal's work and we recommend him highly.
Sal was great to work with and explained the types of pavers and designs so that we could make a good decision. He was very respectful, pleasant and knowledgeable. Would definitely hire him again. Sal installed a 12 x 14 patio for us and we are so enjoying it! Kathy and Don Drebaum
Sal and Ken are the BEST of the best! My husband and I couldn’t be happier with the work they did making our new walkway and entry stairs. Exactly what we wanted, very reasonably priced, passionate about their work, and overall very nice guys. Thank you guys again so much for your business! You’ve made our house look 1000x better. Check out our before, progress, and after pics!
Sal's Masonry did an excellent job on building a pad for my shed. It was a difficult property to navigate, and Sal made it look easy. Sal and his helper are very easy to work with, and when when I changed the job halfway through it was not a problem at all. He made the necessary changes to keep me happy. The job was finished before expected and looks amazing. I will be using his services again.
